Why Join Us
At The Care Workers’ Charity, everything we do is focused on supporting care workers across the UK. From providing crisis grants and mental health support to campaigning for a fairer future for the workforce, our work makes a real and lasting difference to people who give so much to others every day.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a small, close-knit team at a pivotal moment in our growth. You will play a central role in shaping how we tell our story, build our supporter base and deliver events and fundraising campaigns that genuinely move the dial. Your ideas will be heard, your work will matter, and you will see the impact of what you do.
You will be joining a small, friendly and supportive team where your contribution is genuinely valued and where you will have real ownership of your work.
The Role
We are looking for an experienced, driven and creative Marketing and Events Manager who brings a genuine passion for fundraising and events — and the skills to match. This is not primarily a desk-based marketing role: you will be the engine behind our events programme and a key driver of our fundraising income.
Reporting directly to the CEO, you will lead the planning and delivery of CWC’s events calendar, manage our fundraising activities, and oversee the work of the Marketing and Events Officer. You will be equally comfortable developing the strategy and getting stuck into the detail of execution.
Events will be at the heart of what you do. You will take ownership of our flagship event, coordinate a varied programme of fundraising events, sector conferences and networking activities, and ensure every event is professionally delivered and leaves supporters feeling connected to our mission. You will manage relationships with venues, suppliers and sponsors, and keep a close eye on budgets and income targets.
Fundraising will be a core focus. You will be responsible for achieving financial targets from individual and corporate fundraising, developing creative campaigns across platforms such as Enthuse and JustGiving, and building the kind of relationships with supporters and partners that turn one-off donations into long-term engagement.
Alongside this, you will lead and support the Marketing and Events Officer, ensuring our marketing output — social media, newsletters, website content and campaigns — is consistent, engaging and aligned with our strategic goals.
About You
You will have a proven track record in events management and fundraising, ideally within the charity sector. You know what it takes to plan and deliver events from first concept through to post-event evaluation, and you understand how events can drive income as well as awareness.
You will be a confident, organised and proactive person who can manage competing priorities without losing sight of quality or deadlines. You will be comfortable working independently, managing your own workload and supporting others to manage theirs.
Our ideal candidate will have:
- A proven track record in events management, with demonstrable experience of delivering fundraising income from events
- At least two years’ experience in a charity fundraising or events role
- Experience of line managing or supervising others
- Excellent relationship-building skills with sponsors, corporate partners and individual supporters
- Confidence using fundraising platforms (e.g. Enthuse, JustGiving) and CRM/database systems (Hubspot experience an advantage)
- Strong working knowledge of social media platforms, email marketing tools and website content management
- Experience managing budgets, monitoring income and expenditure, and reporting on financial performance
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills
- High attention to detail and strong project management skills
- Genuine enthusiasm for the charity’s mission and the people we support
Knowledge of the health and social care sector would be a distinct advantage, though not essential.
We Offer
- A salary between £32,000 and £34,000 per annum
- 25 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays
- A flexible, remote-working environment — you must be based in England
- A friendly, supportive team culture where your contribution is genuinely valued
- The opportunity to make a real difference to the lives of care workers across the UK
If you are ready to bring your events and fundraising expertise to a cause that really matters, we would love to hear from you.
We envision a world where care workers are recognised as skilled professionals who are valued, supported, respected and resourced to be in a strong po

Farnham, Surrey, with opportunity for hybrid working. Cross site working required.
About us
Phyllis Tuckwell are based in Farnham, Camberley and Guildford, and provide bespoke, compassionate palliative and end of life care for people living with an advanced or terminal illness, across West Surrey and North-East Hampshire.
Phyllis Tuckwell is a very special place to work. Our staff make a real difference to the lives of our patients and their loved ones, providing outstanding care at a time that really matters. Our support teams are pivotal in helping deliver our vital services, ensuring ‘every day is precious’ for our patients.
We are shortly opening our new hospice building, creating a modern environment designed around patients, families, and staff. Alongside this, we are investing in our digital capability to better support care, improve efficiency, and strengthen how we work as an organisation.
We are seeking an Information Security Manager to shape how our information security is built into a new environment from the outset, rather than retrofitted later. Whilst good progress has already been made in our cyber security and information governance provision across the organisation, this exciting, new role will take the next step in managing and developing a more structured, consistent, and visible approach, seeking to embed good practice and build confidence.
This is not a purely technical or policy focused role. It will be responsible for ensuring our systems and information are safe, resilient, and used responsibly, helping our teams make secure choices in their day-to-day work, and educating staff to understand what this means in practice. The role will play an integral role in ensuring everything we do, and deliver, is secure by default and will ensure a practical, solutions focused approach to risk, helping teams move forward with confidence, building a positive security culture across the organisation.
This is a key role at an important point for the organisation. It will make a tangible impact across the work of Phyllis Tuckwell, both clinically and operationally.
The role will operate under the strategic direction of the Director of IT, Estates and Digital Transformation, while acting as the organisation’s recognised subject matter expert in cyber security and information security. They will be the trusted authority in this area, supporting teams across the organisation and providing credible assurance to senior leaders.
Key Responsibilities of the Information Security Manager will include:
- Leading our approach to cyber security, risk management, and incident response
- Developing and improving our information security management system, aligned to standards such as Cyber Essentials Plus and NHS DSPT
- Identifying and managing risks across systems, processes, and suppliers
- Supporting teams to understand and apply good security practice in real-world situations
- Leading response to any cyber or data-related incidents, ensuring an appropriate and prompt response with a learning mindset
- Working with senior colleagues, including the SIRO and Caldicott Guardian, to provide assurance and oversight
- Building awareness and confidence across the organisation through training and engagement
- Ensuring security is built into new systems, projects, and supplier relationships from the outset
- Develop and deliver engaging information security training and awareness campaigns
- Promote a positive, non-blame culture where people feel confident to report incidents or concerns
- Provide practical advice that helps teams make secure choices in day-to-day work
- Act as a visible and approachable subject matter expert across the organisation
About the candidate
Candidates should possess a balanced skillset across technical cyber security and governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) combined with the ability to translate this into clear, organisation-wide governance and assurance. They will be comfortable with detail, whilst also providing proportionate, practical oversight at an organisational level. They should demonstrate:
- Strong technical grounding in cyber security including networks, endpoints, identity, vulnerabilities, and incident response
- Experience in applying that knowledge to real world risk management, not just theoretical controls
- Good understanding of governance, assurance, and security frameworks such as Cyber Essentials Plus, ISO 27001, and NHS DSPT
- Ability to move comfortably between technical detail and clear, plain-English communication for non-technical audiences
- Experience in providing assurance to senior stakeholders such as risk reporting, audit, or governance forums
- An enabling, solutions-focused approach with the ability to balance risk, with the need to get things done
- Strong focus on behaviour and culture, not just controls and policy
- Able to challenge constructively while helping teams find workable solutions
- Comfortable influencing across teams and building trusted relationships
Relevant qualifications or certifications such as CISSP, CISM, or Security+ are helpful.
Whilst a hospice background is not required, applicants should understand the importance of working in a people-focused, regulated environment.
